Built for the 2000 Sydney Olympics for H. Ishibashi (which translates to "Bridgestone" so I have been told) This is one of the most detailed frames I have ever seen, fillets are present on every place possible, which makes this very stiff for a steel bike. It has a double bladed rear bridge and a hot rod style paint job complete with flames pouring from the front. This is not an NJS track frame, it was custom made for one purpose... Updated photos coming soon.
